I would recommend starting with [the tutorial](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/guide/tutorial/index.html). You’ll need `find_package(Qt5 COMPONENTS …)` with the list of components depending on your usage (e.g., `Core Network`). The other SDKs and libraries will also likely want `find_package` calls. How to use each package should be documented in the project or module (imported targets would be preferred).
